* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: Frequently, primarily to [[AvertedTrope prevent]] [[TrailersAlwaysSpoil spoilers]] in the tags of both characters and content. [[spoiler: This trend is seen as early as the first entry, Nothing Left Unsaid, where [[HugttoPrecure Hana Nono]] shows up to save her juniors in the story's climax, yet the tags make no mention of her or her respective season.]]

* AnachronicOrder: Particularly in the second arc, which begins with Ad Libitum and ends with Dancing Mad. [[spoiler: The five entries take place roughly at the same time, though [[TimeParadox paradoxically]] the last entry spans the longest stretch of time at approximately seven to eight months, whereas the other four take place over days or hours.]]

* {{Crossover}}: [[spoiler:Several characters from ''Manga/GushingOverMagicalGirls'' are either summoned by Terminus or accidentally are pulled into the Precure universe.]]

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/55309000 A Drop in the Bucket]]'' is the fourteenth entry in the series, and the second entry in Act III.

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/50577805 Far Away Boys]]'' is the third entry in the series, published on October 5th, 2023.

This entry is the first to not take place in Sorashido, and instead follows the ''Anime/DeliciousPartyPrettyCure'' team in a sort of romantic drama scenario. The forces of Terminus don't appear in this entry, focusing instead on the budding relationship between Ran and Amane.

* BloodierAndGorier: ''Far'' more so than the source material, which has only shown a Cure bleeding on [[Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure one occasion]]. Characters frequently suffer brutal and realistic injuries with lasting consequences, [[spoiler:including having her hands and eye replaced with cybernetics in Hikaru[[/]]Cure Star's case.]]
* Crossover: [[spoiler:Several characters from ''Manga/GushingOverMagicalGirls'' are either summoned by Terminus or accidentally are pulled into the Precure universe.]]

* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Frequently. Many entries, be they individual chapters or the fics at large, are titled after various songs or lyrics from songs, with those that aren't often having other themes, such as musical terminology or [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration television episodes.]]

The series is the culmination of several years of work by the author to create a [[MassiveMultiplayerCrossover franchise-wide crossover]] of the entirety of Precure, and contains lore stretching back to a few of the author's original, now-deleted works from 2015. It follows the stories of every Precure team from every season (up to and including Soaring Sky) as they struggle against the forces of a primordial darkness known as Terminus.
